Salutations to all
Being a person capable of not only reading, but following directions sometimes as well, I figured that I would copy and paste the questions from the sticky to serve as the basics.
1. What do you do? (Hobbies, job)
Ok, I am the first to admit that I am a slight "nerd" by some people's definition. I But this is a fact that I am ok with.
Hobbies: reading, creating anything with any program i find, creating new supplements and playing Dungeons & Dragons, most all video game RPG's (role-playing games), Magic: The Gathering, and fine foods.
Job: Assistant manager for an independantly owned Pizza Inn.
2. Where are you from?
Originally, I'm from from North Carolina. In fact, still live here. Not that I mind, I love the mountains.
3. Who is your favorite author?
Robert Heinlein. Although any of you who make take the time to read this may (read: probably will) correct my thinking, but he is the only author that I have found that consistantly produced worth-while reading. For me, it's not so much about the author, as how well any given book I pick up is written and holds my attention.
Now, if this had been a question of "What is your favorite literary genre", well; Sci-fi, the "classics", and the occasional sprinkling in the maccabre.
4. What are your favorite films?
A Clockwork Orange, The Long Kiss Goodnight, Y Tu Mama Tambien, History Of The World: Part 1, A Time To Kill, Pay It Forward, E.T., and many others.
5. What music do you want played at your wedding?
I know that it isn't considered "goth" of me to say this, but "All my Life" by KC & Jojo. It seems to say what I feel for her, and it is kindof "our song". But, really anything she wants to hear is perfectly fine by me. I am a hopeless romantic to the core.
6. At your funeral?
Anything lively and upbeat. I don't see why that death should be considered to be a depressing occasion. I like the irish idea of things: say some nice words, and drink and be merry. I want people to celebrate when I die, not because I've been evil to people, or they are happy to see me go, but because I'd reather see my loved are happy, than depressed.
7. This IS a gothic website, so... how do you want to die?
First off, I'd like to say, check out what Empty_Purple_Stars has posted from blood-dance.net. Then check out the section entitled "All goths are fixated on death". As you can read stated there, not all of us are fixated on death. Personally, I prefer to worry with that when the time comes. I will say that I hope I go peacefully.
8. What kind of casket would you want?
Don't like the whole casket idea. I'd rather recieve a viking "burial", i.e. burning raft put out to sea. The whole grave thing just gives lends to the idea that I would like to be fertilize flowers placed above me, and that loved would visit depressed.
9. What's your FAVORITE outfit?
My only pair of Tripps pants from Hot Topic, that, were of such poor quality, that I modified them into something not altogether different, but my own. A white (almost cream-colored with age) tux shirt dating from somewhere around the 1890's, paired with a long, black tux jacket (again slightly modified) lined with a deep shade of crimson (the lining was the mod here to preserve the integrity of the piece). Well, at least for "outings". Normally, I wear whatever is comfortable.
10. What's one thing you miss about being a little kid?
The thrill of discovering something new. I still enjoy finding out new things, but there was more of a sense of exhilaration as a child, than there is now.
11. What's your favorite band?
I have been a die-hard fan of The Cruxshadows ever since hearing "Deception".
12. What kind of education do you have? What is/was/will be your major?
My "formal" education never made it past High School. But, as an "internet junkie", I continue my education most every day by researching any subject that takes my fancy. I like my free approach to education better than the structured environment of a class room, and message boards tend to be a great place to share my findings and test their validity.
13. Why did you join?
The chance of meeting like-minded individuals, sharing my views, and generally to learn.
14. If the first 13 questions didn't give it away. What is your gender?
Male
Any further questions about me, my opinions or beliefs can be asked freely, I have nothing to hide and love to chat.
